Great video. Love the interview with John. DMD2 is a great product and he is obviously very keen to develop it. I have got my tablet and controller and I look forward to enjoying all the new features on it.
Following your video a few weeks ago, I finally bought a tablet and the controller. It is a fantastic system. In my province, we are not allowed to touch the screen of a GPS or cell phone to zoom or move the map while driving. We can only follow the path on the screen. Now I am no longer afraid of being caught by the police. Thank you for sharing this information
I have just brought this for my 701 I’m a Apple user never had android before, I can’t wait to get how to use it properly this app is fantastic imo ..thanks for sharing this video 👍👍
What a fantastic video. I've started to use DMD very recently and I really like it. The interview with the developer was brilliant. Keep it up and thanks 👍
This is just amazing ! I knew the app, but this combo is just great. Waow. Will get it to start my travel to Mongolia next year. Thanks a lot for sharing this great stuff on a professionnal way thereby !
Nice video. DMD2 is good even without the handlebar controllers with android phones and tabs. Just started to use it with phone and about to use it with android tablet. Greetings from Finland. AND THäNX!
I have been researching this type of product for several weeks now.. thinking about ways.. iPad iPhone etc… but. This is next level.. I need to find a dealer in USA
The only physical part you need from the dealer is the controller. There is also the smaller "Adventure controller". For the tablet can optinally use any Andoid tablet or rugged Android phone. The Carpe Iter Tablet is nice though. And of course the DMD2 app is downloadable.
Such a good channel you have and thanks for this vid. I'd never heard of them before and from this look like the best tool for navigation out there and a much needed product.
Hello Rob, another very useful and entertaining episode on navigation, top notch. I started using the active tab 2 with CI controller and DMD2 some days ago. I'm torn between wow what great features and technic and the other way of getting rid of all distracting gear while riding a bike. But I think hat is kind of normal after more than 40 years riding bikes. But I also see what communities can build and that is really fascinating. Keep going and always stay on top of the bike. Cheers Michael
I had to cut down the interview since it was an hour, but he spoke of them making a Tablet from scratch. I think that would be a less bulky thing. But then again, you can use any android device of your choice.

Wich apps are you using for the widgets? Couldn't find apps with working widgets to add like yours besides the Locus Tracker, although I was using GPS Logger, simple and reliable standalone solution, without widget to add...
The DMD2 application now handles gps-recording and a navigation is on the way. For weather widget I use "Windy" and for navigation normally Google maps, Locus map or just any navigation app for android.
Hi „Nomad“, may you tell me which mounting and which cable you are using for the OBD2 scanner, please ? I am facing the new Ténéré World Raid - thanks a lot in advance … 🙏
Hi! Not sure which mounting you mean. For the ODB all you need is the ODB2 scanner and the adapter. I have a 4-pin adapter, but on newer T7 it is a 6 pin, so I would thing the Raid has the same. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GX4PVQ1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@NomadSweden Hi - thank you 🙏 Yes, I was thinking about the mounting for the pad itself … I guess one need to strengthen the fixation of the pad ?! BR
@@klauspeters7434 Yes, I am now buying a real rally tower because the Carpe Pad is 1kg and too heavy for the T7 to have it high up like I like it. A "anti wobble" kit does not help because the T7 front is plastic and needs a real tower for that weight. To you it on the T7 without a rally tower you need to remove the speedo and place it on the handlebar, and put the carpe iter where the display was.
Great video and good content. As I understand it the app is work in progress as always but other then that this setup is “good to go”? I’m sitting with my finger on the order button just wanted to make sure?
Actually all maps and features are offline and no internet needed. I’s only if you want to use other apps like weather etc you need internet since it is also a normal android device. And to watch Nomad videos 😊
Hello Sir, I have the original Carpe tablet like the one in this video. It is still a viable solution? I'm just getting around to building my Tenere 700 and see that Thork moved on, and I don't even see DMD2 on the Carpe website at all as a supported platform. Can it still get updates to the latest anriod system and DMD2 app? Also, what OBD cable did you buy for the Tenere 700? Thank you for the wealth of info on your social platforms. You have been instrumental in "navigating: my way through this build. See what I did there? :)
Thanks VERY much for this video. I have been wanting to see a practical installation of CI and its double crontroller for a while. On DD2 available maps are somewhat limited. Is it possible to install maps of countries that are not present in the app - eg for Africa? Also, how can I find out about available features on my KTM 500 EXC through ODBLink LX? Thanks again.
Nice content on your channel, just subscribed. Purchased Locus Map Pro but struggling with the configuration. Would be very helpful to see how you did set your own up. Keep up the great work 👍
Can you store your dyna tune…. Or if you put an exhaust From some other manufacturers and you need to flash your ecm Or fir whatever reason your ecm breaks,, and you need a new one.. can you keep your tune installed to flash the new chip. Or even store multiple tunes ?
I'm just wondering - are forest in Sweden fully open for motor vehicles? By that I mean is it fully legal to take a motorcycle and just adventure on any forest roads you encounter?
Just found this app through the forum looking for nav options. I never really liked standalone units so it sparked my interest being able to use my phone or tab. The only downside is that its not super clear to me how to use DMD2. Would you mind doing a tutorial on how to set up basic functionality? Perhaps a series? I'd appreciate it. I'm also thinking this would be a great app for overlanding. Probably going to play around with it in the rig on my next camping trip. Thanks!
Thanks! I may do a tutorial when I get the time. Also keep in mind that DMD2 is work in progress so it still lacks som vital functions like recording GPX, and even navigation and POI search. But that's all coming.
@@NomadSweden I'm sure I'm not the only one, or at least I hope lol. Yes it's not polished but the concept alone is unique enough to support John in what he's doing. Wish he had a team lol
Nice, thx for all the info, especially what John talked about what might come in the future. I'm using DMD2 already, but experience a lot of trouble with gps accuracy, gps fix is never better than 4 metres (for all apps) Now I'm thinking about replacing my cheapo china phone with a CI pad, hoping to get better results. Are you satisfied with gps accuracy of the device?
There has been problems with GPS positioning which are fixed since some time back. It works well on my tablet now in my home area. Soon going on 8.000km trip so I will know better.
@@NomadSweden great, thank you! I saw in the video that your gps fix on the CI pad is 1, something metres, which is awesome...So I guess I might pull the trigger on one of the tablets....loooking forward to videos about your trip. :-)
Thanks for great video. Really useful seeing how good the controller is with this. Can you tell me how you set up DMD2 so that it comes on/goes off with bike power as you showed? I've just wired in switched power for my phone on a VFR and will convert the power I have on my adventure bike (currently a Garmin satnav). Just received my phone case and mount setup so trying to get all this working. May I also suggest tweaking the description of your video (it wasn';t easy to re-find searching for DMD2). Correct spelling of "Dashboard" above and add DMD2as a keyword. Thanks.
Thanks. The power management etc on/off is not a setting I have made but is how the Carpe Iter Pad works out of the box. Not sure if it can be altered.
@@e.g.8371 Yeah it's a tough one. The TC takes more space, but you are more in control over what you press when things are bumpy. But the new adventure controller is improved a lot since the first version I used.
Hi Rob, again I have watched this video and admit that Carpe Iter has been part of my thinking a long time now. At the moment I am running Trailtech Voyager Pro and Garmin Zumo XT. As I have almost made my final decision in favour of Carpe Iter as it combines both devices into one, but have just bought a second motorcycle, I wonder if this device can be used on both of them. So, there is my rally converted 701 and soon the new 890 Adv R will be delivered. Will it be possible to have all the small parts installed on both bikes and then run it with the same Carpe Iter Pad? Best, Hubertus
Hi there. You would need a mounted holder with power on both bikes. Then it's very easy to just put the pad on which ever bike you want to use. The bigger problem I think would be the controller. It is harder to move so perhaps you would need two controllers. Or accept using hands on one of the bikes. /Rob
Thanks, Rob, I meant having the small parts like controllers, connections, holders etc on both bike ready installed to then only change the CI Pad... Due to different makes and models of my bikes I "fear" difficulties with the internal settings (compatability) of the CI Pad... Did I make myself understood a little better?
@@humoto1 There is no compability required for the pad since it does not connect to your motorcycle. You only need to mount the holders and supply power. If you intend to use the ODB-feature it will connect to some statistics but that is not a problem on any bike since ODB is standard.
There’re zillions of cheap android tablets (and less so ios ones) around. Why this expensive piece of hardware specifically? Is it another case of “if it’s for bikes, then double the price” or has this got a specific value? Thanks.
Well, I'm not selling this product, but my main reasons is the screen brightness which is much higher than the cheap pads. It is very weather/temp-rugged and includes the lockable holder with powersupply made for the bike. Still much money but I think that are the differences from my pov. The good thing is that you can combine the things you do like, such as the controller, the software and use any android device you like.
Interesting indeed! But since I am not a tech nerd I am trying to understand whether this system requires integration with the user’s Android cell system or if it is also compatible with the iOS platform.....or if it simply doesn’t matter??
Does drivemode 2 automatically turn on when using a mobile phone or do you have to select it as an app I Can't afford a carpe iter but would like to try drivemode 2 on my android phone with a controller but retain the actual phone apps.
Riktigt bra video! Kan ni inte göra en video hur ni gör för att navigera i sverige? Vore intressant att se hur ni gör när ni stöter på grindar, traktorspår osv. Tycker själv sånt är svårt att undvika och man måste ”fula”ibland. Det kanske är mer relevant för oss svenskar men vore kul att höra hur andra resonerar.
Vi gjorde videon "ADV like a swede" men den går kanske inte in på sån extrem detalj. Kortfattat så undviker vi förbud och grindar så långt vi kan. Traktorspår kör vi gärna så länge vi känner att vi inte stör folk eller natur, och att spåret inte känns privat nära gård/hus.
@@NomadSweden ok jag får kolla på den 🥳👍 man försöker så gott det går men händer ibland att man får stanna och diskutera men någon sur gubbe. Ofta ser det bra ut på kartan men inte i verkligheten och då vill man inte vända.
Well, this didn't age too well. At least not the Carpe Iter - DMD2 connection. John is selling his own devices now, 8" tablets and 6" phones with the latest version of his DMD2 software. He remains incredibly active and helpful with questions about his soft- and harware though. Recommended company!
Hello Rob, nice and informative clip. Since I am the happy owner of an Carpe Iter tab that I swap between my bikes one of them being an KTM 690 Adventure and that particular one have almost no dashboard I'm very happy about your solution with the OBD device, but following your link I cannot find the cable section on that site so I wonder if you have more info about that.
Thanks. The ODBLink has a normal ODB-port. My Yamaha has a different port for the ODB so I need an adapter cable specific for Yamaha. I don't know if this is what you need but heres a link to something similar ebay.us/N8CF3X . Just google "KTM ODB cable"
@@NomadSweden Many thanks for your answer, also I do not understand very well how did you overlay the bike parameters like temperature or tachometer [that i am very interested in] over the map, I did not look for that but I did not noticed on my tablet. Maybe a more in detail video will be of great help for many other riders.
I understand. In DMD2 on the map you have the menu option to add widgets. Thats it. Yes the video was only a quick overview at this point. Perhaps a full tutorial can come later
I usaly ride alone but after you teased me with the Carpe iter pad then it will be nice to be abel to us it fully... and mabe we meet ut some day for some riding who nows :)
First know that all intercom has problems :D Always some bad noise or struggle to connect. But we use Sena because thats what we had. In our group we have the Sena 30K and the 50 R.
i was hoping for iOS compatibility too. I'm guessing that's an entirely different can of worms, getting Drivemode to work on an apple device. If it works as well as advertised, there aren't many benefits to developing an iOS version. Small outfit (Thork&CarpeDudes), so a cost/benefit issue. They can either spend their time perfecting the app for Android, or let that stagnate and work on an iOS version. Probably doesn't make sense. I think Thork is doing amazing things, so we shouldn't be greedy. lol. Great video!
I use some Android rugged Device and think about buying the Terrain Command Gen 2 or the CI Controll, do both of these Controllers work on any Android?
I just checked the Pictures again, so is it really 19mm for each 4 Button Unit of the Terrain Command Gen 2? I dont know how to get that much Space on my Handlebar 😄
have you seen ARiemann have made a side by side mount for his T7? Maybe it could be a more aesthetic solution, even though i can allready tell it's going to be wide as helvete ;)
@@NomadSweden i see. That would defently be a deal-breaker. For his small Montana GPS I think it's good though. Do you ever drive in Norway? I'm planning my first solo trip, and would love some experienced eyes to take 5min to look at my GPX file, and tell me if its looks OK. I'm most conserned about every day lengths as I know 1km in Norway takes longer than in DK due to small curvy roads, drunk Norwegians and moose attacks
@@DonClemenster It happens :) Trying to go to Rally Grenseland (Oslo) in May. About trip planning, my best advice it to set loose plans and don't have too much time pressure. It's great to be able to go a shorter or longer day depending on the situations, without feeling that you ruined your detailed plans. My best memories comes from things I didn't plan for :)
@@NomadSweden thank you. It is exactly what im planning for.. Loose plans, with time to spare for adventures. I'll let this trip be a test to see if it's too loose, or tight :) Its an individual thing i guess. Some guys can ride 1000km in a day with time to spare, others cant even make it out on the bike ;) Thanks for great content. I really learn a lot from your "nerdy" side, and laugh at your relatable humor!
You can use any Android app on the device. I use different apps for different situations. The DMD map I use always when I have GPX-tracks to ride. For navigation I use downloaded apps, like Waze.
This video sold me.. have been looking for a big fucking display and some easier way than fingers on the screen... But i think i do not have the ODB function on my Husky 450 fe... Do you now if the Topo GPS works on it?? Have used those maps for Sweden and Norway think they works really good...
Open Source is really fast, but of course I don't know how you could make money. I see some companies just open the JavaScript stuff. Car companies are integrating a search where it will look up troubles (some codes or driver) and give a voice summary of fault. I really like hardware neutrality and widgets.
How about doing a kickstarter project and this way you can build a team. I am sure the community would be large enough to warrant it. Having a skunk works effort working on something as useful as this kind of solution seems like a great thing that will never come to market as a solid on going supported system.
@@NomadSweden after looking a little further, I see that this system called Carpe Iter is a full kit for sale. The total kit with remote nav buttons and brackets, is close to 2k. But looks like a interesting all in one solution. The question is, can it be mounted with that sturdy bracket system on many different motorcycles ?
Great video Rob. I have just started looking into this mapping solution over the last few days and I am extremely impressed by it. I am wondering though, there is a lot of talk in your video and others about upgrades and new things in the future that will be released. If I was to buy it today, would I still be able to get the future developments or would I be stuck with an early generation model that can't be upgraded? Do you know?
Thank you. The app is forwever (and often) updating so you are not stuck in a version. If you buy the Carpe Iter tab, everything is unlocked and free. If you download the app to a normal phone or tablet you pay to unlock the map section. Pay once or per month. But upgrades for the future is included.
Per haps a tutorial later on. By ex, install the weather app "Windy". Then go to dash board (Home) screen and choose to edit layout. Then choose to add a android widget and choose Windy radar. That will put a weather radar on the home dashboard. Or any other widget you pick.
Really cool stuff, Robert and well explained and presented with a sense of humor again 😉 I was wondering why the app is updated so frequently but now I know the reason 👍🏼 Can you let me know which Android app and which map material you are using? Safe rides 💙💛🏁🤛🏼 and greetings from sunny 🇩🇪, Bernd

Hi! Not sure which mounting you mean. For the ODB all you need is the ODB2 scanner and the adapter. I have a 4-pin adapter, but on newer T7 it is a 6 pin, so I would thing the Raid has the same. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GX4PVQ1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@NomadSweden Hi - thank you 🙏 Yes, I was thinking about the mounting for the pad itself … I guess one need to strengthen the fixation of the pad ?! BR
@@klauspeters7434 Yes, I am now buying a real rally tower because the Carpe Pad is 1kg and too heavy for the T7 to have it high up like I like it. A "anti wobble" kit does not help because the T7 front is plastic and needs a real tower for that weight. To you it on the T7 without a rally tower you need to remove the speedo and place it on the handlebar, and put the carpe iter where the display was.
@@NomadSweden Thanks a lot !
Great video and good content. As I understand it the app is work in progress as always but other then that this setup is “good to go”? I’m sitting with my finger on the order button just wanted to make sure?
Yes the app is good to go for sure
This is a game changer
Great device and features but if I well understand, you always need an internet connexion, right? So is it really ideal for ADV rides?
Actually all maps and features are offline and no internet needed. I’s only if you want to use other apps like weather etc you need internet since it is also a normal android device. And to watch Nomad videos 😊
Hello Sir, I have the original Carpe tablet like the one in this video. It is still a viable solution? I'm just getting around to building my Tenere 700 and see that Thork moved on, and I don't even see DMD2 on the Carpe website at all as a supported platform. Can it still get updates to the latest anriod system and DMD2 app? Also, what OBD cable did you buy for the Tenere 700?
Thank you for the wealth of info on your social platforms. You have been instrumental in "navigating: my way through this build. See what I did there? :)
Thanks VERY much for this video. I have been wanting to see a practical installation of CI and its double crontroller for a while. On DD2 available maps are somewhat limited. Is it possible to install maps of countries that are not present in the app - eg for Africa? Also, how can I find out about available features on my KTM 500 EXC through ODBLink LX? Thanks again.
Thanks! You can use any map app on the device. Dont know about the ktm but check out the forums on their website. www.drivemodedashboard.com
@@NomadSweden Thx. However, I did not mean other map apps. I meant other maps on the DMD2 map app, in order to have all integrated.
Ah ok. There is a map library where you download different countries for free. Didnt check if africa is there though
@@NomadSweden yep, but only a few ☹️
I recommend asking in the forums on dmd2. The staff answer there also and what the plans are for the missing countries
Nice content on your channel, just subscribed. Purchased Locus Map Pro but struggling with the configuration. Would be very helpful to see how you did set your own up. Keep up the great work 👍
Thanks. Im not really using locus now but i used some great tutorials on UA-cam.
Can you store your dyna tune…. Or if you put an exhaust From some other manufacturers and you need to flash your ecm Or fir whatever reason your ecm breaks,, and you need a new one.. can you keep your tune installed to flash the new chip. Or even store multiple tunes ?
I don't know about dyna tune, but it is an Andoid and it can store files. I also use it with ODB2 etc so it has many utilities.
I'm just wondering - are forest in Sweden fully open for motor vehicles? By that I mean is it fully legal to take a motorcycle and just adventure on any forest roads you encounter?
Hello Nitza.
If you watch our film on how to adv like a Swede, almost all the answers are there.
ua-cam.com/video/yAI7M0XQWdo/v-deo.html
Just found this app through the forum looking for nav options. I never really liked standalone units so it sparked my interest being able to use my phone or tab. The only downside is that its not super clear to me how to use DMD2. Would you mind doing a tutorial on how to set up basic functionality? Perhaps a series? I'd appreciate it. I'm also thinking this would be a great app for overlanding. Probably going to play around with it in the rig on my next camping trip. Thanks!
Thanks! I may do a tutorial when I get the time. Also keep in mind that DMD2 is work in progress so it still lacks som vital functions like recording GPX, and even navigation and POI search. But that's all coming.
@@NomadSweden I'm sure I'm not the only one, or at least I hope lol. Yes it's not polished but the concept alone is unique enough to support John in what he's doing. Wish he had a team lol
Hi.
A very good video. Thanks a lot.
Do you know what kind of ODB link adapter I need for a KTM 1090 Adventure R 2017 model?
Thanks. Not sure but it should be easy to google. ”Odb connector ktm 1090”
Nice, thx for all the info, especially what John talked about what might come in the future. I'm using DMD2 already, but experience a lot of trouble with gps accuracy, gps fix is never better than 4 metres (for all apps) Now I'm thinking about replacing my cheapo china phone with a CI pad, hoping to get better results. Are you satisfied with gps accuracy of the device?
There has been problems with GPS positioning which are fixed since some time back. It works well on my tablet now in my home area. Soon going on 8.000km trip so I will know better.
@@NomadSweden great, thank you! I saw in the video that your gps fix on the CI pad is 1, something metres, which is awesome...So I guess I might pull the trigger on one of the tablets....loooking forward to videos about your trip. :-)
Thanks for great video. Really useful seeing how good the controller is with this. Can you tell me how you set up DMD2 so that it comes on/goes off with bike power as you showed? I've just wired in switched power for my phone on a VFR and will convert the power I have on my adventure bike (currently a Garmin satnav). Just received my phone case and mount setup so trying to get all this working. May I also suggest tweaking the description of your video (it wasn';t easy to re-find searching for DMD2). Correct spelling of "Dashboard" above and add DMD2as a keyword. Thanks.
Thanks. The power management etc on/off is not a setting I have made but is how the Carpe Iter Pad works out of the box. Not sure if it can be altered.
@@NomadSweden Thanks very much. I guess it's a feature of the controller app. I'll get in touch with them.
Wonder how this compares to their new Adventure Control unit? Also to fit did you have to modify to find room for you levers on either side?
The adventure control is also awesome. To fit these i had to move the controls a bit and remove the pins that fixes them to the bar.
@@NomadSweden Can't decide to get the Adv controller or for a bit more $ get the Terrain Com. Thanks for posting!
@@e.g.8371 Yeah it's a tough one. The TC takes more space, but you are more in control over what you press when things are bumpy. But the new adventure controller is improved a lot since the first version I used.
1:34 Ok, this was a test, right? Cos that's actualy a TomTom GPS! :D
Joking apart though, a great video. Thank you. 👍
Haha well spotted :) Thank you
I seem unable to find reliable info about the OBD support. Does it work in the latest version of the App? Or is it still beta?
Odb works in the app. All bikes does just not have all values through the odb. Like fuel level
@@NomadSweden this is great news! Thanks
Thanks for this detailed video. Can i ask which heated grips you use?
Thanks. I use the OEM Yamaha heated grips.
Hi Rob,
again I have watched this video and admit that Carpe Iter has been part of my thinking a long time now. At the moment I am running Trailtech Voyager Pro and Garmin Zumo XT. As I have almost made my final decision in favour of Carpe Iter as it combines both devices into one, but have just bought a second motorcycle, I wonder if this device can be used on both of them.
So, there is my rally converted 701 and soon the new 890 Adv R will be delivered.
Will it be possible to have all the small parts installed on both bikes and then run it with the same Carpe Iter Pad? Best, Hubertus
Hi there. You would need a mounted holder with power on both bikes. Then it's very easy to just put the pad on which ever bike you want to use. The bigger problem I think would be the controller. It is harder to move so perhaps you would need two controllers. Or accept using hands on one of the bikes. /Rob
Thanks, Rob, I meant having the small parts like controllers, connections, holders etc on both bike ready installed to then only change the CI Pad...
Due to different makes and models of my bikes I "fear" difficulties with the internal settings (compatability) of the CI Pad...
Did I make myself understood a little better?
@@humoto1 There is no compability required for the pad since it does not connect to your motorcycle. You only need to mount the holders and supply power.
If you intend to use the ODB-feature it will connect to some statistics but that is not a problem on any bike since ODB is standard.
Perfect!!! Thanks
First..
Also, another great video!
thanks!
Thanks Dennis! And congrats on the first place medal!
The BEST to navegate !!!
Where did you get the handguard mirrors?
rally-motor.nl/products/rottweiler-performance-mirror-mounts-with-rally-motor-arrow-mirrors
There’re zillions of cheap android tablets (and less so ios ones) around. Why this expensive piece of hardware specifically? Is it another case of “if it’s for bikes, then double the price” or has this got a specific value? Thanks.
Well, I'm not selling this product, but my main reasons is the screen brightness which is much higher than the cheap pads. It is very weather/temp-rugged and includes the lockable holder with powersupply made for the bike. Still much money but I think that are the differences from my pov. The good thing is that you can combine the things you do like, such as the controller, the software and use any android device you like.
Sounds great.is there a dealer in Australia?
Mainly in Portugal www.thorkracing.com/en/
Hi there! Which Android APP do you suggest to record in GPX file my routes?
I use Locus Map. It works well. But almost all nav apps can record. And soon it will be part of Drivemode Dashboard also.
Would the unit have weather conditions map and alerts
You can use any google play app on the device. But no weather built in. I use apps for that
Interesting indeed!
But since I am not a tech nerd I am trying to understand whether this system requires integration with the user’s Android cell system or if it is also compatible with the iOS platform.....or if it simply doesn’t matter??
Its only for android phones and tablets at this point. Check drivemodes homepage for more
Does drivemode 2 automatically turn on when using a mobile phone or do you have to select it as an app I Can't afford a carpe iter but would like to try drivemode 2 on my android phone with a controller but retain the actual phone apps.
Drivemode can be run as a permanent home screen or as an app. So you can still have your normal phone.
Robert is there a way that i can buy the mount for the carpe iter from you?
Let's check with Seymor if he wants to produce more of them... sendus an email at info@nomadsweden.se
Can't promise though
How well did your Carpe Iter setup cope with your Turkey trip Robert? That must have been a tough field test. Any new developments in mind?
Carpe did well! No problems and and I am happy with the whole setup
Good stuff!!
Maybe use hot glue to waterproof your connections ? and use solvent if you need to remove connections. or maybe bluetak ?
It has worked well so far 👍🏻
Also does anyone know if it would work on bikes like crf450rl? They don't have a typical obd plug
Obd is not needed but not sure what plug the crf450l has
Riktigt bra video!
Kan ni inte göra en video hur ni gör för att navigera i sverige?
Vore intressant att se hur ni gör när ni stöter på grindar, traktorspår osv. Tycker själv sånt är svårt att undvika och man måste ”fula”ibland.
Det kanske är mer relevant för oss svenskar men vore kul att höra hur andra resonerar.
Vi gjorde videon "ADV like a swede" men den går kanske inte in på sån extrem detalj. Kortfattat så undviker vi förbud och grindar så långt vi kan. Traktorspår kör vi gärna så länge vi känner att vi inte stör folk eller natur, och att spåret inte känns privat nära gård/hus.
@@NomadSweden ok jag får kolla på den 🥳👍 man försöker så gott det går men händer ibland att man får stanna och diskutera men någon sur gubbe. Ofta ser det bra ut på kartan men inte i verkligheten och då vill man inte vända.
@@mxnystrom Ja det finns inga genvägar tyvärr. Kika på TST och deras dokument på hur man ska göra. Det är nog det bästa.
@@NomadSweden tack för tips och råd. Själv sprätter man runt på kontoret med nomad sweden tshirt 😂🥳
@@mxnystrom vacker syn
Well, this didn't age too well. At least not the Carpe Iter - DMD2 connection. John is selling his own devices now, 8" tablets and 6" phones with the latest version of his DMD2 software. He remains incredibly active and helpful with questions about his soft- and harware though. Recommended company!
Indeed things have changed. I personally use the T865 from Thork now :)
Hello Rob, nice and informative clip. Since I am the happy owner of an Carpe Iter tab that I swap between my bikes one of them being an KTM 690 Adventure and that particular one have almost no dashboard I'm very happy about your solution with the OBD device, but following your link I cannot find the cable section on that site so I wonder if you have more info about that.
Thanks. The ODBLink has a normal ODB-port. My Yamaha has a different port for the ODB so I need an adapter cable specific for Yamaha. I don't know if this is what you need but heres a link to something similar ebay.us/N8CF3X . Just google "KTM ODB cable"
@@NomadSweden Many thanks for your answer, also I do not understand very well how did you overlay the bike parameters like temperature or tachometer [that i am very interested in] over the map, I did not look for that but I did not noticed on my tablet. Maybe a more in detail video will be of great help for many other riders.
I understand. In DMD2 on the map you have the menu option to add widgets. Thats it. Yes the video was only a quick overview at this point. Perhaps a full tutorial can come later
What type of gere do you use for comunikate whit felow riders??
Sena intercom
@@NomadSweden What model is preferable??
I usaly ride alone but after you teased me with the Carpe iter pad then it will be nice to be abel to us it fully... and mabe we meet ut some day for some riding who nows :)
First know that all intercom has problems :D Always some bad noise or struggle to connect. But we use Sena because thats what we had. In our group we have the Sena 30K and the 50 R.
Will this be for sale in USA 🇺🇸? Also does Apple connect well with this ?
You will have to ask Thork Racing about the sales. But sorry no iOS.
i was hoping for iOS compatibility too. I'm guessing that's an entirely different can of worms, getting Drivemode to work on an apple device. If it works as well as advertised, there aren't many benefits to developing an iOS version. Small outfit (Thork&CarpeDudes), so a cost/benefit issue. They can either spend their time perfecting the app for Android, or let that stagnate and work on an iOS version. Probably doesn't make sense. I think Thork is doing amazing things, so we shouldn't be greedy. lol. Great video!
I use some Android rugged Device and think about buying the Terrain Command Gen 2 or the CI Controll, do both of these Controllers work on any Android?
Great Video btw 😊
Thanks! Yes both work on android
Cool thanks! Could you tell me also the Width of the Terrain Command Gen2? Cant find it on the Website…
Width of one button unit is 19mm
I just checked the Pictures again, so is it really 19mm for each 4 Button Unit of the Terrain Command Gen 2? I dont know how to get that much Space on my Handlebar 😄
not cheap but nice alternative to my electric F2R roadbook. Only not sure if as reliable...
have you seen ARiemann have made a side by side mount for his T7? Maybe it could be a more aesthetic solution, even though i can allready tell it's going to be wide as helvete ;)
Yes, I saw it and it's jävligt nice. but it only takes a portrait, smaller size. I like to have it like a roadbook.
@@NomadSweden i see. That would defently be a deal-breaker. For his small Montana GPS I think it's good though. Do you ever drive in Norway? I'm planning my first solo trip, and would love some experienced eyes to take 5min to look at my GPX file, and tell me if its looks OK. I'm most conserned about every day lengths as I know 1km in Norway takes longer than in DK due to small curvy roads, drunk Norwegians and moose attacks
@@DonClemenster It happens :) Trying to go to Rally Grenseland (Oslo) in May. About trip planning, my best advice it to set loose plans and don't have too much time pressure. It's great to be able to go a shorter or longer day depending on the situations, without feeling that you ruined your detailed plans. My best memories comes from things I didn't plan for :)
@@NomadSweden thank you. It is exactly what im planning for.. Loose plans, with time to spare for adventures. I'll let this trip be a test to see if it's too loose, or tight :)
Its an individual thing i guess. Some guys can ride 1000km in a day with time to spare, others cant even make it out on the bike ;)
Thanks for great content. I really learn a lot from your "nerdy" side, and laugh at your relatable humor!
Haha nice editing!
Leave it to the Portuguese to get the navigation right. Pioneers in naval navigation since the 14th century
Great info.... But where's part 2 of the camping trip? Wanna ride ☺
More trips are coming. Hang in there
@@NomadSweden Will do
Fab stuff dude
would be nice to have Waze integrate a switch in the map for us road users
You can use any Android app on the device. I use different apps for different situations. The DMD map I use always when I have GPX-tracks to ride. For navigation I use downloaded apps, like Waze.
This video sold me.. have been looking for a big fucking display and some easier way than fingers on the screen... But i think i do not have the ODB function on my Husky 450 fe... Do you now if the Topo GPS works on it?? Have used those maps for Sweden and Norway think they works really good...
Thanks. Not sure about TopoGps. There is a list on thorks site i think
is this good to use here in united states?
Yeah sure
Does anyone know how to get one in the USA?
Only sold by thork racing
Open Source is really fast, but of course I don't know how you could make money. I see some companies just open the JavaScript stuff.
Car companies are integrating a search where it will look up troubles (some codes or driver) and give a voice summary of fault.
I really like hardware neutrality and widgets.
Did you get Google maps to work
Yes
@@NomadSweden how I am having trouble getting it to move once I start the directions I do have cell data
No idea. Contact them for support
O........B.........D lol, I'm sure it isn't your first language but thought I would help you out before to many more videos! 😮
Haha i have been working on it 😊
How about doing a kickstarter project and this way you can build a team. I am sure the community would be large enough to warrant it. Having a skunk works effort working on something as useful as this kind of solution seems like a great thing that will never come to market as a solid on going supported system.
Thork is leveling up and I believe they will do great things. If I did it I would not have time to ride 😊
@@NomadSweden after looking a little further, I see that this system called Carpe Iter is a full kit for sale. The total kit with remote nav buttons and brackets, is close to 2k. But looks like a interesting all in one solution. The question is, can it be mounted with that sturdy bracket system on many different motorcycles
?
I guess that is Thorkracing
@@manfrombkk yes it can be mounted on any bike. 👍🏻
Great video Rob. I have just started looking into this mapping solution over the last few days and I am extremely impressed by it. I am wondering though, there is a lot of talk in your video and others about upgrades and new things in the future that will be released. If I was to buy it today, would I still be able to get the future developments or would I be stuck with an early generation model that can't be upgraded? Do you know?
Thank you. The app is forwever (and often) updating so you are not stuck in a version. If you buy the Carpe Iter tab, everything is unlocked and free. If you download the app to a normal phone or tablet you pay to unlock the map section. Pay once or per month. But upgrades for the future is included.
I wish you would show how to configure widgets because for the life of me I am having no luck?
Per haps a tutorial later on. By ex, install the weather app "Windy". Then go to dash board (Home) screen and choose to edit layout. Then choose to add a android widget and choose Windy radar. That will put a weather radar on the home dashboard. Or any other widget you pick.
Really cool stuff, Robert and well explained and presented with a sense of humor again 😉 I was wondering why the app is updated so frequently but now I know the reason 👍🏼
Can you let me know which Android app and which map material you are using?
Safe rides 💙💛🏁🤛🏼 and greetings from sunny 🇩🇪, Bernd
Thanks! I am using the map available in DMD2. When you get drivemode the map is not active, so you need to go in to settings and subscribe to it.
@@NomadSweden Thanks Robert. Just done it and will check the map data of my local area.
En updaterig på hvordan det går med GPSen kunne være fedt
An update on how it's going with the GPS would be great
Tack, det ska vi fixa
Cant want to see the finished unit
